Par-devant Maître Pierre Probst, notaire de résidence à Ettelbruck.

curation sous seing privé, datée à Bilzen, du 11 janvier 2009, laquelle procuration, après avoir été signée "ne varietur" par
les comparants et le notaire instrumentaire, restera annexée au présent acte pour être enregistrée avec lui;
3) Monsieur Patrick VANGENCK, administrateur de sociétés, né à Genk (Belgique) le 25 novembre 1960, domicilié
à B-3740 Bilzen, 76, Zutendaalweg en Belgique,
lesquels comparants ont requis le notaire instrumentant de dresser acte d'une société à responsabilité limitée dont ils
ont arrêté les statuts comme suit:
I. Dénomination - Siège social - Objet social - Durée
Art. 1
er
. Dénomination. Il est établi une société à responsabilité limitée sous la dénomination MARKET BASE, qui
sera régie par les lois du Luxembourg, en particulier par la loi du 10 août 1915 concernant les sociétés commerciales,
telle que modifiée par la suite et par les présents statuts.
Art. 2. Siège social. Le siège social est établi dans la commune de Rambrouch au Grand-Duché de Luxembourg. Il peut
être transféré dans les limites de la commune de Bigonville par simple décision du gérant, ou en cas de pluralité de gérants,
du conseil de gérance. Il peut être transféré en tout autre endroit du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg par résolution de
l'associé unique ou de l'assemblée générale des associés délibérant comme en matière de modification des statuts.
Il peut être créé par simple décision du gérant, ou en cas de pluralité de gérants, du conseil de gérance, des succursales,
filiales ou bureaux tant au Grand-Duché de Luxembourg qu'à l'étranger. Lorsque le gérant unique ou le conseil de gérance
estime que des événements extraordinaires d'ordre politique, économique ou social de nature à compromettre l'activité
normale au siège social ou la communication aisée entre le siège social et l'étranger se produiront ou seront imminents,
le siège social pourra être transféré provisoirement à l'étranger, jusqu'à cessation complète de ces circonstances anor-
males. Cette mesure provisoire n'aura toutefois aucun effet sur la nationalité de la société qui restera une société
luxembourgeoise.
Art. 3. Objet social. La société a pour objet l'achat, la location, la vente et le commerce sous toutes ses formes de
tout matériel, outillage et de tout objet au sens le plus large du terme, lié directement ou indirectement à l'installation
d'échoppes utilisées sur tout marché et/ou dans toute forme de commerce ambulant ou non ainsi que tout matériel
destiné au secteur Horeca et du tourisme en général, tel que le mobilier et le matériel destiné à toute forme de terrasse
ou l'installation de tout lieu visant à la consommation sur place de toutes denrées alimentaires, ainsi que toutes opérations
se rapportant directement ou indirectement à l'objet social ou de nature à en favoriser la réalisation.
Art. 4. Durée. La société est constituée pour une durée illimitée.
La société ne sera pas dissoute par suite du décès, de l'interdiction, de l'incapacité, de l'insolvabilité, de la faillite ou de
tout autre événement similaire affectant un ou plusieurs associés.
II. Capital - Parts sociales
Art. 5. Capital. Le capital social est fixé à DOUZE MILLE CINQ CENTS EUROS (12.500,00 €), représenté par 100
parts sociales sous forme nominative d'une valeur nominale de 125,00 € chacune, toutes souscrites et entièrement
libérées.
Le capital social de la société pourra être augmenté ou réduit en une seule ou plusieurs fois par résolution de l'associé
unique ou de l'assemblée générale des associés délibérant comme en matière de modification des statuts.
Art. 6. Parts sociales. Chaque part sociale donne droit à une fraction des actifs et bénéfices de la société en proportion
directe avec le nombre des parts sociales existantes.
Envers la société, les parts sociales sont indivisibles, de sorte qu'un seul propriétaire par part sociale est admis. Les
copropriétaires indivis doivent désigner une seule personne qui les représente auprès de la société.
Les parts sociales sont librement transmissibles entre associés et, en cas d'associé unique, à des tiers.
19216
En cas de pluralité d'associés, la cession de parts sociales à des non-associés n'est possible qu'avec l'agrément donné
en assemblée générale des associés représentant au moins les trois quarts du capital social.
La cession de parts sociales n'est opposable à la société ou aux tiers qu'après qu'elle ait été notifiée à la société ou
acceptée par elle en conformité avec les dispositions de l'article 1690 du code civil.
Pour toutes autres questions, il est fait référence aux dispositions des articles 189 et 190 de la loi précitée.
Un registre des associés sera tenu au siège social de la société conformément aux dispositions de la loi où il pourra
être consulté par chaque associé.
III. Gestion - Représentation
Art. 7. Conseil de gérance. La société est gérée par un ou plusieurs gérants, lesquels ne sont pas nécessairement des
associés et qui seront nommés par résolution de l'associé unique ou de l'assemblée générale des associés laquelle fixera
la durée de leur mandat.
Les gérants sont révocables ad nutum.
Art. 8. Pouvoirs du conseil de gérance. Tous les pouvoirs non expressément réservés à l'assemblée générale des
associés par la loi ou les présents statuts seront de la compétence du gérant ou, en cas de pluralité de gérants, du conseil
de gérance, qui aura tous pouvoirs pour effectuer et approuver tous actes et opérations conformes à l'objet social.
Des pouvoirs spéciaux et limités pour des tâches spécifiques peuvent être délégués à un ou plusieurs agents, associés
ou non, par tout/deux gérant(s).
Art. 9. Procédure. Le conseil de gérance se réunira aussi souvent que l'intérêt de la Société l'exige ou sur convocation
d'un des gérants au lieu indiqué dans l'avis de convocation.
Il sera donné à tous les gérants un avis écrit de toute réunion du conseil de gérance au moins 24 (vingt-quatre) heures
avant la date prévue pour la réunion, sauf en cas d'urgence, auquel cas la nature (et les motifs) de cette urgence seront
mentionnés brièvement dans l'avis de convocation de la réunion du conseil de gérance.
La réunion peut être valablement tenue sans convocation préalable si tous les gérants de la société sont présents ou
représentés lors de la réunion et déclarent avoir été dûment informés de la réunion et de son ordre du jour. Il peut aussi
être renoncé à la convocation avec l'accord de chaque gérant de la société donné par écrit soit en original, soit par
télégramme, télex, téléfax ou courrier électronique.
Tout gérant pourra se faire représenter aux réunions du conseil de gérance en désignant par écrit un autre gérant
comme son mandataire.
Le conseil de gérance ne pourra délibérer et agir valablement que si la majorité des gérants est présente ou représentée.
Les décisions du conseil de gérance sont prises valablement à la majorité des voix des gérants présents ou représentés.
Les procès-verbaux des réunions du conseil de gérance seront signés par tous les gérants présents ou représentés à la
réunion.
Tout gérant peut participer à la réunion du conseil de gérance par téléphone ou vidéo conférence ou par tout autre
moyen de communication similaire, ayant pour effet que toutes les personnes participant à la réunion peuvent s'entendre
et se parler. La participation à la réunion par un de ces moyens équivaut à une participation en personne à la réunion.
Les résolutions circulaires signées par tous les gérants seront considérées comme étant valablement adoptées comme
si une réunion du conseil de gérance dûment convoquée avait été tenue. Les signatures des gérants peuvent être apposées
sur un document unique ou sur plusieurs copies d'une résolution identique, envoyées par lettre ou téléfax.
Art. 10. Représentation. La Société sera engagée, en toute circonstance, vis-à-vis des tiers par la seule signature du
gérant, en cas de gérant unique ou de deux gérants, lorsqu'ils sont plusieurs, ou par les signatures conjointes ou la signature
unique de toutes personnes à qui de tels pouvoirs de signature ont été valablement délégués conformément à l'article 8
des statuts.
Art. 11. Responsabilités des gérants. Les gérants ne contractent à raison de leur fonction aucune obligation personnelle
relativement aux engagements régulièrement pris par eux au nom de la Société, dans la mesure où ces engagements sont
pris en conformité avec les Statuts et les dispositions de la Loi.
IV. Assemblée générale des associés
Art. 12. Pouvoirs et droits de vote. L'associé unique exerce tous les pouvoirs qui sont attribués par la loi à l'assemblée
générale des associés.
Chaque associé possède des droits de vote proportionnels au nombre de parts sociales détenues par lui.
Tout associé pourra se faire représenter aux assemblées générales des associés de la société en désignant par écrit,
soit par lettre, télégramme, télex, téléfax ou courrier électronique une autre personne comme mandataire.
Art. 13. Forme - Quorum - Majorité. Lorsque le nombre d'associés n'excède pas vingt-cinq associés, les décisions des
associés pourront être prises par résolution circulaire dont le texte sera envoyé à chaque associé par écrit, soit en original,
soit par télégramme, télex, téléfax ou courrier électronique. Les associés exprimeront leur vote en signant la résolution
19217
circulaire. Les signatures des associés apparaîtront sur un document unique ou sur plusieurs copies d'une résolution
identique, envoyées par lettre ou téléfax.
Les décisions collectives ne sont valablement prises que pour autant qu'elles soient adoptées par des associés détenant
plus de la moitié du capital social.
Toutefois, les résolutions prises pour la modification des statuts ou pour la dissolution et la liquidation de la société
seront prises à la majorité des voix des associés représentant au moins les trois quarts du capital social de la société.
V. Comptes annuels - Affectation des bénéfices
Art. 14. Exercice social. L'exercice social commence le 1
er
janvier de chaque année et se termine le 31 décembre.
Chaque année, à la fin de l'exercice social, les comptes de la sociétés sont arrêtés et le gérant ou, en cas de pluralité
de gérants, le conseil de gérance dresse un inventaire comprenant l'indication des valeurs actives et passives de la société.
Tout associé peut prendre connaissance de l'inventaire et du bilan au siège social de la société.
Art. 15. Affectation des bénéfices. Les profits bruts de la société repris dans les comptes annuels, après déduction des
frais généraux, amortissements et charges constituent le bénéfice net. Il sera prélevé cinq pour cent (5%) sur le bénéfice
net annuel de la Société qui sera affecté à la réserve légale jusqu'à ce que cette réserve atteigne dix pour cent (10%) du
capital social de la société.
L'assemblée générale des associés décidera discrétionnairement de l'affectation du solde restant du bénéfice net annuel.
Elle pourra en particulier attribuer ce bénéfice au paiement d'un dividende, l'affecter à la réserve ou le reporter.
VI. Dissolution - Liquidation
Art. 16. Dissolution - Liquidation. En cas de dissolution de la Société, la liquidation sera assurée par un ou plusieurs
liquidateurs, associés ou non, nommés par résolution de l'associé unique ou de l'assemblée générale des associés qui

la loi, les liquidateurs seront investis des pouvoirs les plus étendus pour la réalisation des actifs et le paiement des dettes
de la société.
Le boni de liquidation résultant de la réalisation des actifs et après paiement des dettes de la société sera attribué à

2.1. Name
There is hereby established among the subscribers and all those who may become Partners in the future, a company
in the form of a "société en commandite par actions" under the name of "Vespa A S.C.A." and which is incorporated
under the laws of Luxembourg and governed by the provisions of these Articles (hereinafter the "Company").
2.2. Registered office
The registered office of the Company is established in Luxembourg. Within the same municipality, the registered office
of the Company may be transferred by resolution of the Manager. Branches, subsidiaries or other offices may be esta-
blished either in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg or abroad by resolution of the Manager.
In the event that the Manager determines that extraordinary political, economic or social developments have occurred
or are imminent, that would interfere with the normal activities of the Company at its registered office or with the ease
of communication between such office and persons abroad, the registered office may be temporarily transferred abroad
until the complete cessation of these abnormal circumstances; such temporary measures shall have no effect on the
nationality of the Company which, notwithstanding the temporary transfer of its registered office, will remain a Luxem-
bourg company.
2.3. Duration
The Company is incorporated for a limited duration, the term of the Company being the tenth anniversary of the Final
Closing Date, with two possible extensions of one year each by a resolution of the general meeting of Partners to be
approved at the Special Majority.
In any case, the Company may enter into liquidation at any time upon proposition of the Manager by a resolution of
the general meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority.
2.4. Object
Without limitation, the purpose of the Company is to carry on the business of an investor and in particular to identify,
research, negotiate, make and monitor the progress of and sell, realise, exchange or distribute investments which shall
include but shall not be limited to the purchase, subscription, acquisition, sale and disposal of shares and securities,
debentures, convertible loan stock and other securities in unquoted companies and in certain quoted situations (such as
in relation to Bridging Investments or following the initial public offering of a Portfolio Company), and the making of loans
whether secured or unsecured to affiliated companies, with the principal objective of providing Limited Partners with a
high overall return primarily by means of capital growth.
The Company (acting through the Manager) may execute, deliver and perform all contracts and other obligations and
engage in all activities and transactions as may in the opinion of the Manager be necessary or advisable in order to carry
out the foregoing purposes and objectives, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of these Articles.
3. Share capital - Shares.
3.1. Share capital
The share capital of the Company consists of the subscribed share capital and the authorised share capital.
The subscribed capital is set at forty thousand three hundred ninety-nine euro (EUR 40,399.00) consisting of three
hundred ninety-nine (399) Class A Investor Shares having a par value of one euro (EUR 1.00) each (the "Class A Investors
Shares") and forty thousand (40,000) management shares having a par value of one euro (EUR 1.00) each (the "Management
Shares").
The authorised capital, including the issued share capital, is set at one hundred million euro (EUR 100,000,000.00)
consisting of one hundred million (100,000,000) Shares, in the form of Investor Shares or Special Partners Shares, having
a par value of one euro (EUR 1,00) each. The authorised share capital shall be exclusively used for the purpose of issuance
of Shares by the Manager to Limited Partners in exchange for their Capital Contribution and/or capitalised Loan Payment,
as applicable (as provided in articles 4.3, 4.4 and 5.6).
During the period of five (5) years from the date of the publication of these Articles, the Manager is therefore authorised
to issue Shares of different classes under the authorised share capital, as determined in his sole discretion, and to grant
options to subscribe for such Shares, to the Investors and Special Partners in accordance with these Articles. At the
expiration of the five (5) year period, such authorisation may be renewed, at one or several occasions, by the general
meeting of Partners, at a Special Majority, for a new period not exceeding five (5) years.
The Shares to be issued under the authorised share capital will be issued for each Investment made by the Company
or to finance the Aggregate Compensation or any obligation, liability and expenses of the Company, and subject to article
6, as soon as practicable after each Investor's related proportion of Commitment has been drawn down by the Manager
in accordance with article 4.2. or after each Special Partner's Capital Contribution has been made in accordance with
article 5.6. The Manager shall specify the class of Shares that are being issued.
The Company shall be considered as a single legal entity; however, as among Partners, holders of any specific class or,
as the case may be, sub-classes of Shares shall be exclusively liable, with respect to a specific Investment, for an amount
not exceeding the related total amount of their Capital Contributions and/or capitalised Loan Payments, subject to the
provisions of applicable law and contractual arrangements.
19227
The subscribed capital and the authorised capital of the Company may further be increased or reduced by a resolution
of the general meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority.
3.2. Form of shares
All Shares shall be issued in registered form only.
A Partners' register which may be examined by any Partner will be kept at the registered office. The Partners' register
will contain the precise designation of each Partner and the indication of the number of Shares held, the class of shares
and the payments made on the Shares as well as the transfers of Shares and the dates thereof. Each Partner will notify to
the Company by registered letter its address and any change thereof. The Company will be entitled to rely on the last
address thus communicated.
Certificates of these recordings shall be issued and signed by the Manager upon request of a Partner. Such signatures
shall either be made by hand, printed, or in facsimile.
Ownership of the registered Shares will result from the recordings in the Partners' register.
The Company recognises only one owner per Share. If one or more Shares are jointly owned or if the ownership of
such Share(s) is disputed, all persons claiming a right to such Share(s) have to appoint one single representative to
represent such Share(s) towards the Company. The failure to appoint such representative shall imply a suspension of all
rights attached to such Share(s).
3.3. Shares held by all limited partners
3.3.1 The Shares held by the Limited Partners, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Special Partners Shares, are
redeemable shares (the "Redeemable Shares") in accordance with article 49-8 of the Law. Redeemable Shares bear the
same rights to receive dividends and have the same voting rights as non-redeemable Shares. Subject to article 6.1 below,
subscribed and fully paid-in Redeemable Shares shall be redeemable on a pro rata basis of Redeemable Shares of each
class held by each Limited Partner upon request of the Company in accordance with article 49-8 of the Law or as may
be further provided for in a written agreement which may be entered into among the Partners from time to time. The
redemption of the Redeemable Shares can only be made by using sums available for distribution in accordance with article
72-1 of the Law (distributable funds, inclusive of the reserve established with the funds received by the Company as an
issue premium) or the proceeds of a new issue made with the purpose of such redemption. Redeemed shares bear no
voting right, and have no right to receive dividends or the liquidation proceeds. Redeemed shares may be cancelled upon
request of the Manager by a resolution of the general meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority.
3.3.2 Special Reserve. An amount equal to the nominal value, or, in the absence thereof, the accounting par value, of
all the Shares redeemed must be included in a reserve which cannot be distributed to the Partners except in the event
of a capital reduction of the subscribed share capital; the reserve may only be used to increase the subscribed share capital
by capitalisation of reserves.
3.3.3 Redemption Price. Except as otherwise provided in these Articles or by a written agreement entered into among
the Partners from time to time, the redemption price of the Redeemable Shares shall be calculated by the Manager or
by a person appointed by the Manager on the basis of the Net Asset Value of that particular class of redeemed Shares.
The Net Asset Value of such class of Shares shall be expressed as a per Share figure and shall be determined in respect
of any valuation day by dividing the Net Asset Value at close of business on that day, by the number of Shares of that
class then outstanding, in accordance with such rules as the Manager shall regard as fair and equitable. In the absence of
any bad faith, gross negligence or overt error, any calculation of the redemption price by the Manager that is approved
by the general meeting of Partners at the Ordinary Majority shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and on its
present, past and future Partners.
3.3.4 Redemption Procedure. Except as otherwise provided in article 6.1.2, at least 20 (twenty) days prior to the
redemption date, a written notice shall be sent by registered mail or internationally recognised overnight courier to each
registered Limited Partner of the Shares to be redeemed, at his or her address last shown in the Partners' register of the
Company, notifying such Limited Partner of the number of Shares to be redeemed, specifying the redemption date, the
redemption price and the procedures necessary to submit the Shares to the Company for redemption. Each holder of
Shares to be redeemed shall surrender the certificate or certificates, if any, issued in relation to such Shares to the
Company. The redemption price of such Shares shall be payable to the order of the Limited Partner whose name appears
on the Partners' register as the owner thereof on the bank account details of which will have been provided to the
Company by such Limited Partner before the redemption date.
3.4. Particular financial rights granted by the shares
3.4.1 Shares held by the Investors
3.4.1.1 The existing or future Class A Investor Shares shall entitle the Investors to receive distributions from the
Company (in the form of dividends, redemption of shares, reimbursement of share premium or otherwise) which amount
shall be calculated and distributed in accordance with articles 17.1, 17.4 and 17.5.
3.4.1.2 The Shares of other classes to be issued under the authorised share capital for an Investment made by the
Company shall entitle the Investors to receive distributions from the Company (in the form of dividends, redemption of
shares, reimbursement of share premium or otherwise) which amount shall be calculated and distributed in accordance
with articles 17.2, 17.4 and 17.5.
19228
3.4.2 Shares held by the Special Partners
The Special Partners Shares shall entitle the Special Partners to receive distributions from the Company (in the form
of dividends, redemption of shares or otherwise) which amount shall be calculated and distributed in accordance with
articles 17.2, 17.4 and 17.5.
3.4.3 Shares held by the Manager
The Management Shares entitle the Manager to receive distributions from the Company (in the form of dividends,
redemption of shares, reimbursement of share premium or otherwise) which amount shall be calculated and distributed
in accordance with articles 17.1, 17.2, 17.3, 17.4 and 17.5.
4. Commitments from the investors.
4.1. Level of commitments from the investors
4.1.1 The minimum Commitment to the Company by an Investor is five hundred thousand euro (EUR 500,000.00),
provided that Commitments of smaller amounts may be accepted at the discretion of the Manager.
4.1.2 The maximum Commitment to the Company by each Investor shall be provided in a partners' agreement as may
be entered into by all the Partners from time to time.
4.2. Drawdowns from the investors commitments
4.2.1 Drawdowns shall be made in respect of each Commitment in such amounts and on such dates as shall be
determined by the Manager and specified in a Drawdown Notice to the Investors not less than ten (10) Business Days
prior to the date so specified. Drawdown Notices may be made either to fund Investments or to finance the Aggregate
Compensation or any obligation, liability or expense of the Company. Each Drawdown Notice shall, subject to any
confidentiality requirements (if any), contain summary details of the proposed Investment to which it relates or the
proposed use of the drawn down amounts, including the nature of the business carried on by any proposed Portfolio
Company and the country or countries in which that company's business is carried out, or specify that the Drawdown
is made to finance the Aggregate Compensation. Each Drawdown Notice shall also specify whether (i) the amounts drawn
down shall be paid in the form of a Capital Contribution and/or a Loan Payment, as determined by the Manager, and (ii)
that the Capital Contribution and/or the later converted Loan Payment shall be exclusively allocated towards the autho-
rised share capital of the Company. The Manager shall be entitled to issue Drawdown Notices by email provided however
that an Investor may request that a copy of all Drawdown Notices issued by email are then faxed or posted to such
Investor.
4.2.2 The Manager (save as provided in article 5) shall drawdown Commitments from Investors pro rata to their
respective Commitments (disregarding the Commitment of any Defaulting Investor).
4.2.3 Subject to article 4.2.4, the Manager shall make no further drawdown of Commitments after the end of the
Commitment Period.
4.2.4 Notwithstanding article 4.2.3, Undrawn Commitments (if any) may be drawn down after the end of the Com-
mitment Period:
4.2.4.1 For the purpose of paying any obligation of, or any of the expenses and liabilities of the Company;
4.2.4.2 For the purpose of paying the Aggregate Compensation (including advances in respect thereof);
4.2.4.3 For the purpose of making Investments (other than New Investments) or completing contracts committed or
entered into before that date; or
4.2.4.4 For the purpose of making Follow On Investments or completing contracts entered into before that date
provided that amounts drawn down to fund such Follow On Investments must not exceed 10 (ten) per cent, of the Total
Commitments.
4.2.5 The Manager may, by giving prior written notice to the Investors, determine that part or all of the Investors'
Undrawn Commitments which shall be cancelled at which time such portion of cancelled Undrawn Commitment shall,
for the purposes of these Articles, be deemed to have been drawn down and immediately repaid to the Investors.
4.3. Capital contributions
Any Capital Contribution shall trigger the issue of Shares of specific classes under the authorised share capital which,
for the avoidance of doubt, shall be allocated to the Investors (as further provided in article 3.1).
4.4. Loan payments
Where Loan Payments have been made as requested in the Drawdown Notice, the Manager shall ensure that, prior
to any distribution of profits arising from an Investment to an Investor in accordance with article 17, the related interest-
free loan be capitalised in exchange for Shares of a specific class issued by the Manager to the relevant Investor under
the authorised share capital. Such capitalisation shall be based on the delivery of a valuation report prepared by a Lu-
xembourg independent auditor.
4.5. Commitments and Reserves for guarantees and Indemnities
Unless and until Investors are required, pursuant to a Drawdown Notice, to pay funds to the Company under this
article 4 to enable it to satisfy its obligations in respect of any guarantees, indemnities, covenants and undertakings in
connection with Investments or proposed Investments, no Commitments shall be regarded as having been drawn down
by the Company from Investors in relation to such guarantees, indemnities, covenants or undertakings for the purposes
19229
of these Articles. Pending the termination, expiry or release of any such guarantees, indemnities, covenants or underta-
kings, an amount of Commitments equivalent to the potential liabilities of the Company in relation thereto will be held
in reserve and may not be drawn down for any other purpose.
5. Admission of further partners.
5.1. Further investors
Further Investors may be admitted as Subsequent Investors at any time up to and including the Final Closing Date (or
such later date agreed by a resolution of the general meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority), through
a Capital Contribution and/or Loan Payment, and related issuance of Shares of a specific class by the Manager under the
authorised share capital of the Company. Simultaneously with their admission, newly admitted Investors shall sign and
deliver to the Manager a Deed of Adherence upon acceptance of which by the Manager they shall each be admitted to
the Company and treated as an "Investor" and "Limited Partner" for all purposes of these Articles. Except as provided
for in these Articles (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as provided in article 18) no further person may be admitted
as a Subsequent Investor after the Final Closing Date.
5.2. Increase in commitments of existing investors
Existing Investors may be permitted, at the absolute discretion of the Manager, to increase the amount of their Com-
mitments at any time up to and including the Final Closing Date (or such later date agreed by a resolution of the general
meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority), provided that they each sign and deliver to the Manager an
amended Deed of Adherence (or other document satisfactory to the Manager) reflecting such increase of Commitment,
and such Investors shall be treated as though they were Subsequent Investors in respect of the increased amount of their
Commitments for the purposes of this article 5 and for all other purposes of these Articles.
5.3. Equalisation payment by subsequent investors
This article 5.3 shall apply to a Subsequent Investor who (i) is admitted to the Company pursuant to the provisions of
article 5.1, or (ii) has increased its Commitment pursuant to article 5.2, after the First Closing Date and in circumstances
where one or more Capital Contribution and Loan Payments, if any, have been made ("Relevant Payments") by existing
Investors ("Previous Investors") prior to the First Drawdown Date of the Subsequent Investor. Any such Subsequent
Investor shall pay to the Company on the First Drawdown Date:
5.3.1 by way of drawdown of its Commitment, an amount equal to the amount notified to such Subsequent Investor
by the Manager as being necessary to equalise (in percentage terms) the net amount drawn down from all Investors after
taking into account any amounts (other than any amounts equal to interest) distributed to Previous Investors, as set out
in this article 5; plus
5.3.2 an additional amount calculated thereon during the period commencing on the date of the first Relevant Payment
and ending on the First Drawdown Date of such Subsequent Investor equal to interest at the rate of EURIBOR plus 2
(two) per cent, per annum for the period from the date when such amount would have been drawn down from such
Subsequent Investor had such Subsequent Investor been admitted at the First Closing Date, until the First Drawdown
Date of the Subsequent Investor (the "Actualisation Interest").
Amounts so payable by a Subsequent Investor shall promptly be distributed to Previous Investors (in the form of
dividends, redemption of shares, reimbursement of share premium or otherwise) pro rata to their respective Outstanding
Commitments as soon as is practicable after receipt so as to increase their respective Investors' Outstanding Commit-
ments so that, immediately thereafter, the amounts of all Investors' Outstanding Commitments will bear the same
proportion to their respective Commitments.
5.4. Treatment of equalisation amounts paid and Received by the investors
5.4.1 Any amounts payable by a Subsequent Investor pursuant to article 5.3.1 shall be payable by way of a drawdown
of that Subsequent Investor's Commitment.
5.4.2 Any amounts payable by a Subsequent Investor pursuant to article 5.3.2 shall be payable in addition to the
Commitment of such Subsequent Investor and shall not be treated as a distribution to Previous Investors for any purposes
of these Articles.
5.4.3 Any amount distributed to Previous Investors pursuant to article 5.4 (but excluding any amount so distributed
which is referable to the additional amount referred to in article 5.4.2) will be in partial repayment of the Outstanding
Commitments of the Previous Investors and will increase their Undrawn Commitments (and will therefore be available
for drawdown).
5.5. Application of article 5.4 on an increase in commitment from a subsequent investor
In respect of a Subsequent Investor increasing its Commitment pursuant to article 5.2, the provisions of article 5.4
shall only apply in respect of the increase in Commitment, and not in respect of that Subsequent Investor's prior Com-
mitment.
5.6. Admission of special partners
5.6.1 For each Investment contemplated by the Company, the Manager may decide to offer to one or more existing
or new Special Partners to participate in this Investment opportunity in the form of a Capital Contribution to the Com-
pany.
19230
5.6.2 Any Capital Contribution made by existing or new Special Partners shall trigger the issue of Shares of specific
classes under the authorised share capital. Such Special Partners Shares shall entitle the Special Partners to receive
distributions from the Company (in the form of dividends, redemption of shares, reimbursement of share premium or
otherwise) which amount shall be calculated and paid in accordance with articles 17.2, 17.4 and 17.5. The Manager shall
determine any other terms and conditions of the Special Partners Shares.
5.6.3 Simultaneously with their subscription of Special Partners Shares, newly admitted Special Partners shall sign and
deliver to the Manager a Deed of Adherence upon acceptance of which by the Manager they shall each be admitted to
the Company and treated as a "Special Partner" and "Limited Partner" for all purposes of these Articles.
5.7. Restriction on admission of partners
Notwithstanding the provisions of this article 5, no additional Limited Partner shall be admitted to the Company if the
admission of such Limited Partner would violate, or cause the Company to violate, any applicable law or regulation. The
Manager or any other Partner shall be entitled to rely on any representation or certificate of any Partner (or prospective
Partner) as to its legal nature and composition or any other matter in relation to such Partner or prospective Partner's
admission into the Company or in respect of any Partner's continued existence as a Partner.
6. Defaulting and Excused investors.
6.1. Failure to comply with a drawdown Notice
6.1.1 If any Investor (other than an Excused Partner) fails to advance to the Company any amount which is the subject
of a Drawdown Notice on or before the date of expiry of such Drawdown Notice, then the Manager may, at any time
thereafter, give notice to such Investor requiring it to remedy such default and to pay interest to the Company on the
amount outstanding for the period from the date of expiry of the Drawdown Notice up to the date of payment (or, if
earlier, the date of forfeiture of such Defaulting Partner's interest as set out below) thereof at the rate of four percent
(4%) over EURIBOR from time to time, on or before the expiry of 21 (twenty-one) days from the date of such notice
from the Manager (the "Default Interest"). If the Investor has not remedied such default and paid all interest at the expiry
of twenty-one (21) days from the date of such notice, the Manager may deem such Investor to be a "Defaulting Investor".
The Manager, the Investors and the Company shall, in respect of any Defaulting Investor, have the rights provided in
articles 6.1.2, 6.1.3 and 6.1.4.
6.1.2 The Manager shall have the right (but shall not be required), without prejudice to any other rights it or the
Company may have (and so that the Default Interest shall continue to accrue after the period of twenty-one (21) days
referred to in article 6.1.1), at any time after the expiry of such period of twenty-one (21) days, to redeem all classes of
Shares registered in the name of such Defaulting Investor (the "Defaulted Redeemable Shares") in accordance with the
following rules and procedure:
6.1.2.1 The Manager shall send a notice (the "Redemption Notice") to the Defaulting Investor specifying the Defaulted
Redeemable Shares to be redeemed by the Company, the price to be paid, and the place where this price shall be payable.
The Redemption Notice may be sent to the Defaulting Investor by recorded delivery letter to his last known address.
6.1.2.2 The Defaulting Investor shall cease to be the owner of the Defaulted Redeemable Shares specified in the
Redemption Notice and the Defaulted Redeemable Shares that have been redeemed pursuant to article 6.1.2.1 may be
cancelled by a resolution of the general meeting of the Partners approved at the Special Majority.
6.1.2.3 The redemption price shall be equal to the subscription price paid at the time by the Defaulting Investor less
an amount equal to the sum of twenty percent (20%) of this subscription price and of the Default Interest accrued on
the unpaid part of the Commitment, as well as any administration and miscellaneous costs and expenses borne by the
Company in respect of such default (the "Regular Redemption Price"). However, if the Manager determines that the Net
Asset Value of the Company has decreased materially since subscription by the relevant Defaulting Investor and is the-
refore lower than the subscription price, the Manager may change the Regular Redemption price to a price based on the
Net Asset Value of the Defaulted Redeemable Shares on the relevant redemption date (which shall be determined by
dividing the Net Asset Value as of close of business of such day by the Shares then outstanding and applying the proportion
of Defaulted Redeemable Shares redeemed), less an amount equal to the sum of twenty percent (20%) of the subscription
price paid at the time by the Defaulting Investor and of the Default Interest accrued on the unpaid part of the Commitment,
as well as any administration and miscellaneous costs and expenses borne by the Company in respect of such default (the
"Reduced Redemption Price"). The Regular Redemption Price or the Reduced Redemption Price, as applicable, will be
payable at the close of the liquidation of the Company only, except if the Manager and the Defaulting Investor agree
otherwise.
6.1.3 Without prejudice to article 6.1.2, the Manager may further offer the whole or part of the Interest of the
Defaulting Investor to such person or persons (other than the Manager or any Associate of the Manager) as the Manager
shall determine ("Purchaser"), in accordance with the following rules and procedure:
6.1.3.1 The Manager shall first offer the Interest of the Defaulting Investor to all the Investors pro rata to their res-
pective shareholding at the same time.
6.1.3.2 If any Investor does not want to participate in this opportunity to purchase additional Interest, the portion of
that opportunity originally allocated to those non-participating Investors shall be offered (again, pro rata to their respective
19231
shareholding) to those Investors who wish to participate. If any part of the Interest of the Defaulting Investor still remains
available following these successive offers, then the Manager shall offer this part to any person who is not an Investor.
6.1.3.3 The purchase price of any Interest so purchased under articles 6.1.3.1 and/or 6.1.3.2 by a Limited Partner or
any person who is not a Limited Partner shall be equal to the subscription price paid at the time by the Defaulting Investor
less an amount equal to the sum of twenty percent (20%) of this subscription price and of the Default Interest accrued
on the unpaid part of the Commitment, as well as any administration and miscellaneous costs and expenses borne by the
Company in respect of such default (the "Regular Purchase Price"). However, if the Manager determines that the Net
Asset Value of the Company has decreased materially since subscription by the relevant Defaulting Investor and is the-
refore lower than the subscription price, the Manager may change the Regular Redemption price to a price based on the
Net Asset Value of the Interest of the Defaulting Investor on the relevant purchase date (which shall be determined by
dividing the Net Asset Value as of close of business of such day by the Shares then outstanding and applying the proportion
of Interest purchased) less an amount equal to the sum of twenty percent (20%) of the subscription price paid at the time
by the Defaulting Investor and of the Default Interest accrued on the unpaid part of the Commitment, as well as any
administration and miscellaneous costs and expenses borne by the Company in respect of such default (the "Reduced
Purchase Price"). The Regular Purchase Price or the Reduced Purchase Price, as applicable, will be payable at the close
of the liquidation of the Company only, except if the Manager and the Defaulting Investor agree otherwise.
6.1.4 The Manager may take any action as he may think necessary to enforce the obligations of the Defaulting Investor
to make payment of any sums required pursuant to its Commitment.
6.1.5 In the absence of fraud, none of the Manager or any of the Limited Partners shall be liable to a Defaulting Investor
whose Interest is being transferred, or to a Limited Partner purchasing an Interest pursuant to this article. The Manager
shall be constituted the agent for the sale of the Defaulting Investor's Interest and each of the Investors hereby irrevocably
appoints the Manager as its true and lawful attorney to execute any documents required in connection with such transfer
if it shall become a Defaulting Investor and each such Investor undertakes to ratify whatever the Manager shall lawfully
do pursuant to such power of attorney and to keep the Manager indemnified against any claims, costs and expenses which
the Manager may suffer as a result thereof. The receipt by the Manager or the Company of the sale proceeds shall
constitute a good and valid discharge to the Purchaser of the Defaulting Investor's Interest. The Manager shall not be
required to pay the sale proceeds to the Defaulting Investor until the Defaulting Investor has delivered to him any and
all documents of title as may be required by the Manager in respect of its Interest, confirmation that the Defaulting Investor
has no claims against the Manager or the Company and prior to the close of the liquidation of the Company. The Purchaser
shall, on completion of the transfer, be treated as a Substitute Investor.
6.1.6 The Investors agree and acknowledge that the provisions contained in articles 6.1.1 to 6.1.5 are fair, reasonable
and necessary to procure compliance with any Drawdown Notice which, it is agreed, is essential to the objectives of the
Company.
6.2. Excused investors
6.2.1 An Investor shall not be required (or permitted) to comply with a payment request pursuant to a Drawdown
Notice if this Investor satisfies (to the absolute satisfaction of the Manager, in its absolute discretion) the conditions set
out in article 6.2.2 (any Investor so satisfying such conditions being an "Excused Partner" in respect of that Drawdown
Notice) and article 6.1 will not apply to such Excused Partner in respect thereof.
6.2.2 The conditions referred to in article 6.2.1 are that the relevant Limited Partner shall:
6.2.2.1 Not less than five (5) days prior to the date that payment is due under the relevant Drawdown Notice, have
provided to the Manager written notice of its intention to be an Excused Partner in respect of that Drawdown Notice
(such notice to specify whether excuse is sought in respect of all or part of the amount otherwise required to be paid);
6.2.2.2 Concurrently with the notice referred to in sub-article 6.2.2.1, have provided to the Manager an opinion of
counsel or other legal adviser in a form and from a source satisfactory to the Manager (in its absolute discretion) that
compliance by the Limited Partner concerned with its obligations under the Drawdown Notice, taken by itself or together
with other payment of the Commitment of such Limited Partner or any other Partners would result in a violation of any
material law, regulation or guideline applicable to the Limited Partner, any other Limited Partner, the Company, the
Manager, any Portfolio Company or any Associate of any of them.
6.2.3 The Manager may, in its absolute discretion, waive any or all of the conditions specified in article 6.2.2.
6.2.4 If any Limited Partner becomes an Excused Partner pursuant to article 6.2.1 then:
6.2.4.1 The amount of the Excused Partner's Commitment which would, save for the application of article 6.2.1, have
been required to be paid as drawdown of Commitment shall not be required to be paid pursuant to the relevant Draw-
down Notice and shall not be available again for drawdown;
6.2.4.2 Such Excused Partner shall be regarded as not participating in any Investment to which the relevant Drawdown
Notice relates and shall therefore not be entitled to any proceeds resulting therefrom (for the avoidance of doubt, such
Excused Partner will not be granted any Interest relating to that specific Investment from which it is excused and will not
benefit from any related distribution, whether in the form of dividends or otherwise);
19232
6.2.4.3 The Excused Partner shall continue to participate in subsequent Investments in the Excused Proportion (so
that it shall not be entitled to increase its proportionate participation in subsequent Investments unless and to the extent
that it becomes a Subsequent Investor); and
6.2.4.4 the Excused Partner shall not participate in any Follow On Investments in respect of any Investment in which
it does not participate and the provisions of this article 6.2.4 shall apply to such Excused Partner in relation to such Follow
On Investments,
provided that, where an Excused Partner is excused only in respect of a portion of an Investment, the above provisions
will be applied in respect of the proportion of such Investment in respect of which it does not participate.
For the purposes of this article, the "Excused Proportion" shall be equal to the proportion which (i) the Commitment
of the Excused Partner, reduced to exclude the amount in respect of which the Excused Partner has been excused
pursuant to article 6.2.1 bears to (ii) the Total Commitments (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any adjustment to
exclude the amount in respect of which the Excused Partner has been excused pursuant to article 6.2.1).
6.2.5 If any Limited Partner is an Excused Partner in respect of a proposed Investment, the Manager shall be entitled,
at its sole discretion, to:
6.2.5.1 increase the amount to be drawn down from the Limited Partners who are not Excused Partners and, in that
case, the Manager shall, if necessary serve a further Drawdown Notice on those Limited Partners who are not Excused
Partners; and/or
6.2.5.2 offer the balance of such proposed Investment to one or more persons by way of co-investment, in accordance
with article 9, below.
7. Investment policy and Objectives.
7.1. Objective
The Company's objective is to achieve capital returns by investing, directly or indirectly, predominately in unlisted
companies.
7.2. Policy
7.2.1 The Company will invest in Portfolio Companies located primarily in the United Kingdom and France. Aggregated
Investments (with Vespa B) will primarily be in the range of five million euro (EUR 5,000,000.00) to twenty-five million
euro (EUR 25,000,000.00), with enterprise values typically between fifteen million euro (EUR 15,000,000.00) and hundred
million euro (EUR 100,000,000.00).
7.2.2 Investments may, in the Manager's absolute discretion, be made directly or as co-investments alongside other
parties (who may have greater management and control rights over the co-investment than the Company).
7.2.3 Subject to the limits set out below, the Company may also make investments in:
7.2.3.1 Bridging Investments; and
7.2.3.2 Debt securities, so long as such debt investment is made in conjunction with an actual or prospective investment
in equity or equity related securities (including derivatives).
8. Investment restrictions.
8.1 The Company will not, without the prior consent of the Advisory Committee, invest directly or indirectly (excluding
any Bridging Investment) an amount in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) of Total Commitments, in the securities of
any single Portfolio Company or other special purpose vehicle and its Associates.
8.2 Up to ten percent (10%). of Total Commitments may be invested in:
8.2.1 quoted companies or securities representing or convertible into quoted securities; and
8.2.2 in debt and debt-related securities and instruments, providing that such cap shall exclude:
(a) debt and debt-related securities and instruments in relation to any Investment where the Company has or intends
to acquire equity securities;
(b) positions taken in a company in respect of which there is an intention to become unquoted or in a company which
becomes quoted after it becomes a Portfolio Company; or
(c) an investment that has the character of a private equity investment (which would generally include the ability to
exert significant influence over value creation and/or the strategic direction of such entity).
8.2.3 The Company may make investments in collective investment schemes (including unregulated collective invest-
ment schemes and collective investment schemes operated or advised by the Manager or any Associate thereof) but shall
not make any investment in any fund or collective investment scheme which involves paying any additional management
fees or carried interest (or equivalent) to any other fund or investment manager.
8.2.4 The Company shall not:
8.2.4.1 engage in speculative investment in activities such as commodities, commodity contracts or forward currency
contracts);
8.2.4.2 enter into any transaction where a security is sold short or where the Company has an uncovered position
(other than for the purposes of hedging in connection with any Investment); or
19233
8.2.4.3 other than as required for the purposes of hedging in connection with any Investment, invest at any time in any
option, futures contract, total return swap, derivative, contract for difference or other similar instrument (excluding
convertible securities or similar arrangements).
9. Co-Investment.
9.1 To the extent to which part of any investment opportunity remains available following investment by the Company
in an Investment then the Manager shall first offer such investment opportunity to Investors in the same proportions as
their Commitment bear to the Aggregate Commitments, provided that the minimum amount of any Investor's co-in-
vestment shall (save when the Manager so agrees) be five hundred thousand euro (EUR 500,000.00) and any Investor
whose pro-rata share of such investment opportunity would be less than this amount shall not participate in such co-
investment and their share shall instead be allocated between those Investors whose participation exceed the minimum
pro-rata to their respective Commitments.
9.2 If Investors otherwise eligible to participate in a co-investment do not want to participate in this additional invest-
ment opportunity, the portion of that opportunity originally allocated to those non-participating Investors shall be offered
(again, in the same proportions as their Commitment bear to the Aggregate Commitments) to those Investors who do
wish so to participate (and are eligible to do so having regard to minimum co-investment requirement described above).
If any part of any investment opportunity still remains available following these successive offers, then the Manager may
offer this part to any third parties (being for these purposes any person other than the Manager, its Associates or any of
its directors, managers, employees or advisers, save where the Advisory Committee approves the offering of such op-
portunity to such persons) or to Investors who, as a result of their initial pro-rata entitlement being less than five hundred
thousand euro (EUR 500,000.00), were not initially eligible to participate in the co-investment opportunity, as the Manager
may decide. No minimum co-investment amount shall apply to any such offer.
9.3 Notwithstanding the above, the Manager may, in its discretion, offer co-investment opportunities at any time to
persons other than Investors (including employees, agents or officers of the Manager) in circumstances where, in the
Manager's opinion, the offering of such co-investment opportunities to such persons is in the best interest of the Company.
No minimum co-investment amount shall apply to any such offer. In such circumstances the Manager shall not receive
any fees or carried interest in respect of amounts co-invested by such third parties. Further, where it is proposed to offer
co-investment opportunities to third parties who are employees, agents or officers of the Manager, such offer shall be
made with the prior approval of the Advisory Committee.
9.4 Save in the circumstances identified in the immediately preceding paragraph, where a portion of any investment
opportunity is provided by persons other than the Company (including from the Investors directly as co-investment), the
Manager may receive from such Investors and other persons management fees up to an amount equal to one per cent,
per annum of the acquisition cost of that portion and the Vespa B Founder Partner and the Special Partners (or other
Associates of the Manager, as they may determine) may receive a further amount, by way of a special participation equal
(in aggregate) to ten percent (10%). of the aggregate profit realised in respect of the portion of the investment opportunity
funded by persons other than the Company. Where the Managers and their Associates receive or are otherwise entitled
to receive any such additional "special participation" or similar payments from persons other than Investors, the Manager
shall pay, or procure the direct payment by the relevant persons of, such sums to the Company and Vespa B pro rata
according to their respective Total Commitments. Any such amounts received by the Company shall be treated as Capital
Proceeds arising from the Investment to which the co-investment relates.
10. Management and Supervision of the company.
10.1. The Manager
10.1.1 Capacity and powers: The Company shall be managed by the Manager, in its capacity as sole general partner
("associé commandité") and manager ("gérant') of the Company.
Except where the Manager has been removed in accordance with article 10.1.2, the appointment of a successor
manager shall be subject to the approval of the Manager.
The Manager is vested with the broadest powers to perform all acts of administration and disposal within the Com-
pany's stated object.
All powers not expressly reserved by Law or by these Articles to the general meeting of Partners or to the Supervisory
Board are within the powers of the Manager.
The Company is validly bound vis-à-vis third parties by the signature of the Manager represented by duly appointed
representatives, or by the signature(s) of any other person(s) to whom authority has been delegated by the Manager at
its sole discretion.
10.1.2 Removal: Except as provided under this article 10.1.2, the Limited Partners do not have the right to revoke the
Manager without its prior approval.
10.1.2.1 The Manager's appointment may be terminated by the general meeting of Partners, at a Special Majority, at
any time without compensation for termination of its position if a Default Event has occurred.
10.1.2.2 A "Default Event" shall have occurred where:
(a) one or more of the events specified in article 10.1.2.3 below has occurred; and
19234
(b) there has been served on the Manager a notice requiring the termination of his appointment, the form and service
of such notice having been approved by the general meeting of Partners at a Special Majority (such notice being a "Default
Notice").
10.1.2.3 The Default Events referred to in article 10.1.2.2 above are:
(a) the Manager having committed a breach of its obligations under these Articles that is material in the context of
these Articles (whether or not, for the avoidance of doubt, such breach would otherwise be a repudiatory breach) and
(where such breach is capable of remedy) having failed to remedy such breach within twenty-eight (28) days after receiving
notice requiring the same to be remedied (for the avoidance of doubt, any failure by the Company to achieve any In-
vestment Objective or any target return shall not amount to any breach of these Articles);
(b) a final, binding, non-appealable finding by a court of competent jurisdiction of:
(i) gross negligence ("faute lourde") or wilful misconduct ("dol)" on the part of the Manager which has a material and
adverse effect on the Company; or
(ii) fraud ("fraude') on the part of the Manager in connection with the operation or management of the Company;
(c) DL ceasing to Control the Manager provided that, if Control of the Manager passes to NH or to an Associate of
DL or NH, such change of Control shall not amount to a cessation of Control by DL for the purposes of this article
10.1.2.3 (c) and such transfer shall not be a Default Event for the purposes of article 10.1.2.2 (a);
(d) the making of a preliminary or permanent injunction against the Manager or against any director by order, judgment,
or decree of any court or regulatory authority of competent jurisdiction in Luxembourg from engaging in or continuing
any conduct or practice in connection with the activities of the Company and which materially and adversely affects the
Company; or
(e) an order being made or an effective resolution passed for the liquidation of the Manager (except a voluntary
liquidation) or a receiver or similar officer has been appointed in respect of the Manager or of any of its assets or the
Manager entering into an arrangement with its creditors or any of them or the Manager being or being deemed to be
unable to pay its debts.
10.1.2.4 Where the Manager is removed under the preceding provisions of this article or in case of any other permanent
situation preventing the Manager from acting as manager of the Company, the Company shall not immediately be dissolved
and liquidated, provided that the Supervisory Board, as provided for in article 10.2, appoints an administrator, who needs
not be a Partner, in order that he effects urgent management acts, until a general meeting of Partners is held, which such
administrator shall convene within thirty (30) days of his appointment. At such general meeting, the Partners may appoint
a successor manager by a resolution to be approved at the Special Majority. Failing such appointment, the Company shall
be dissolved and liquidated.
Separate liabilities of the Manager: The Manager shall at all times duly and punctually pay and discharge its separate
and private debts and engagements whether present or future incurred or assumed by it as principal and other than in
its capacity as manager and general partner of the Company and shall keep the Limited Partners and their personal
representatives, estates and effects indemnified therefrom and from all liabilities, actions, proceedings, costs, claims and
demands in respect thereof. No Limited Partner shall compromise or settle any such claims or demands without giving
prior notification to the Manager and allowing the Manager an opportunity to defend or dispute the same.
10.2. The supervisory board
The business of the Company and its financial situation, in particular its books and accounts shall be supervised by a
"Conseil de Surveillance" (the "Supervisory Board") comprising at least three (3) members. For the carrying out of its
supervisory duties, the Supervisory Board shall have the powers of a statutory auditor, as provided for by article 62 of
the Law. The Supervisory Board may be consulted by the Manager on such matters as he may determine but it shall not
interfere in any way with the management of the Company or give binding instructions to the Manager.
The members of the Supervisory Board shall be elected by the annual general meeting of Partners for a period which
may not exceed six (6) years and shall hold office until their successors are elected. The members of the Supervisory
Board are re-eligible for election and may be removed at any time, with or without cause, by a resolution of the general
meeting of Partners to be approved at the Ordinary Majority. The Supervisory Board shall elect one of its members as
chairman.
The Supervisory Board shall be convened by its chairman or by the Manager. A meeting of the Supervisory Board must
be convened if any two (2) of its members so requests.
Written notice of any meeting of the Supervisory Board shall be given to all its members at least twenty-four (24)
hours prior to the date set for such meeting, except in the case of an emergency, in which case the nature of such
emergency shall be detailed in the notice of meeting. The notice will indicate the place of the meeting and it will contain
the agenda thereof. This notice may be waived by consent in writing, by facsimile, email or any other similar means of
communication, a copy being sufficient. Special notices shall not be required for meetings held at times and places fixed
in a calendar previously adopted by the Supervisory Board.
The chairman of the Supervisory Board will preside at all meetings of such board, but in his absence the Supervisory
Board will appoint another member of the Supervisory Board as chairman pro tempore by vote of the majority present
at such meeting. Any member may act at any meeting by appointing another member as his proxy in writing, by facsimile,
19235
email or any other similar means of communication, a copy being sufficient. A member may represent several of his
colleagues.
The Supervisory Board can deliberate or act validly only if at least the majority of the members are present or repre-
sented. Resolutions are taken by a majority vote of the members present or represented.
Resolutions of the Supervisory Board are to be recorded in minutes and signed by the chairman of the meeting. Copies
of extracts of such minutes to be produced in judicial proceedings or elsewhere shall be validly signed by the chairman
of the meeting or any two members.
Written resolutions, approved and signed by all the members of the Supervisory Board, shall have the same effect as
resolutions voted at the Supervisory Boards' meetings; each member shall approve such resolution in writing, by facsimile,
email or any other similar means of communication, a copy being sufficient. Such approval shall be confirmed in writing
and all such documents shall together form the document which proves that such resolution has been taken.
Any member of the Supervisory Board may participate in any meeting of the Supervisory Board by conference-call or
by other similar means of communication allowing all the persons taking part in the meeting to hear one another. The
participation in a meeting by these means is equivalent to a participation in person at such meeting.
10.3. Restriction on the limited partners
The Limited Partners shall take no part in the operation of the Company or the management or control of its business
and affairs, and shall have no right or authority to act for the Company or to vote on matters relating to the Company
other than as provided in the Law or as set forth in these Articles but they shall at all reasonable times, subject to having
given reasonable notice, have access to and the right to inspect during normal business hours the books of the Company.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Articles shall give any of the Limited Partners a right of access to the books
and accounts of any Portfolio Company.
11. Investor protection provisions.
11.1. Key executives; Executive departures
11.1.1 If, at any time prior to the end of the Commitment Period, any Vespa A Key Executive ceases for any reason
to devote the majority of his business time to the affairs of the Company or the Portfolio Companies (such event being
an "Executive Departure") then, from the date of the Executive Departure, no further Drawdown Notices shall be issued
by the Company for the purposes of making New Investments (for the avoidance of doubt, this shall exclude any draw-
down required to complete contracts or fulfill binding obligations entered into before such date) unless and until such
suspension is lifted pursuant to article 11.1.2. The Manager shall notify the Investors in writing of any Executive Departure
within thirty (30) Business Days of such occurrence.
11.1.2 Where the issue of Drawdown Notices has been suspended pursuant to article 11.1.1, then the general meeting
of Partners may, at a Special Majority given at any time prior to the termination of the Commitment Period pursuant to
article 11.1.3 approve another individual who is an officer or member of, or is employed or engaged (whether as a
consultant or otherwise) by, the Manager, any Associate of the Manager, Vespa B or any Associate of Vespa B as a new
Vespa A Key Executive, in which case:
(a) upon the appointment of such a replacement Vespa A Key Executive, the suspension referred to in article 11.1.1
shall be lifted; and
(b) article 11.1.1 shall apply equally to the replacement Vespa A Key Executive.
11.1.3 If, after the expiry of a period of twelve (12) months from the date of an Executive Departure, the issue of
Drawdown Notices pursuant to article 11.1.1 has not been resumed pursuant to article 11.1.2 (and provided that the
expiry of such period falls during the Commitment Period) then the Commitment Period shall terminate upon the expiry
of such twelve (12) month period.
11.1.4 After any Executive Departure, the Manager shall take all reasonable steps to ensure the continued performance
of its obligations under these Articles including, where appropriate and subject to applicable law and regulation, by pro-
curing the services of one or more other suitably qualified persons (which may include executives involved in the
management and operation of Vespa B).
11.2. Exclusivity
11.2.1 Save as expressly provided herein, the functions and duties which the Manager undertakes on behalf of the
Company shall not be exclusive and the Manager and any of its Associates, or any adviser of or to the Company or the
Manager, may perform similar functions and duties for others and, without limitation, may act as a general partner, manager
or investment adviser of other funds or other investment vehicles or engage in any other activity and retain any benefit
received for so doing provided, however, that the Manager continues properly to manage the affairs of the Company.
11.2.2 The Manager agrees that it shall not, for the duration of the Exclusivity Period, manage, operate or provide
services to any other fund or investment vehicle which has an investment policy and geographical scope which is sub-
stantially similar to that of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this article 11.2.2 shall prevent the
Manager from:
11.2.2.1 providing services or undertaking activities directly or indirectly in respect of the management and/or ope-
ration of Vespa B, including any services provided to any manager or operator of, or adviser to, Vespa B, or any adviser
19236
or sub-adviser to any such manager or operator and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Company
agrees and acknowledges that the Manager will provide such services and undertake such activities pursuant to the terms
of any co-management agreement which may be entered into by the Company with Vespa B or its Associates from time
to time and the Company hereby:
(a) expressly ratifies and approves the execution of any co-management agreement which may be entered into by the
Company with Vespa B or its Associates from time to time;
(b) agrees that the Manager shall have no obligation to account to the Company for any sums payable to it pursuant
to any co-management agreement which may be entered into by the Company with Vespa B or its Associates from time
to time;
and
11.2.2.2 providing services or undertaking activities directly or indirectly in respect of the management and/or ope-
ration of:
(a) any Alternative Investment Vehicle;
(b) any fund or investment vehicle which has co-invested with the Company or Vespa B (or intends so to do); or
(c) any successor, "top-up", parallel or other similar fund or investment vehicle established in connection with the
Company or Vespa B.
11.2.3 Subject to article 11.2.2 above (including, without limitation, the exclusions set out therein), the Manager agrees
that, during the Exclusivity Period, the Manager shall first offer all investment opportunities within the Investment Policy
to the Company and to Vespa B in accordance with any co-management agreement which may be entered into by the
Company with Vespa B or its Associates from time to time.
11.2.4 In the event that the Manager offers an investment opportunity to the Company or to Vespa B pursuant to the
provisions of article 11.2.3 and the Company or Vespa B and the Company (acting by the Manager, acting reasonably and
in good faith) or Vespa B (acting by its duly appointed agents) confirms that it does not wish to pursue such investment
opportunity then the Manager shall be free to offer such investment opportunity to any third party (being for these
purposes any person other than the Manager or the manager of Vespa B or their respective Associates or any of their
respective directors, managers, employees or advisers). In circumstances where an investment opportunity has been
rejected by the Manager, the Manager shall not accept any fee, profit participation or other reward in connection with
the subsequent offer of such investment opportunity to any such third party and shall account to the Company for any
amounts so received.
11.2.5 Nothing in this article 11.2 shall in any way restrict or prohibit the activities of the Associates of the Manager
in connection with "Vulpes Capital Limited" or "James Villa Holdings Limited" or any of their respective Associates.
11.3. "Most favoured nation" provision
The Company and/or the Manager shall be entitled to enter into side letters or side arrangements in relation to the
operation or business of the Company ("Side Letters") provided however that none of the Company nor the Manager
shall enter into any Side Letters with any Limited Partner who is an Investor in the Company without disclosing them to
all Investors. In addition, the Manager hereby agrees that, if any Side Letters are entered into with an Investor ("SL
Investor"), the Manager will, subject to the proviso in the next sentence, procure that the relevant party will also enter
into a Side Letter on substantially the same terms as the Side Letters entered into with any other Investor who has a
Commitment equal to or greater than that of the SL Investor if they indicate to the Manager in writing within twenty-
five (25) Business Days of the disclosure of the Side Letters or side arrangements that they wish to avail themselves of
any of the terms of those Side Letters. Nothing in this article 11.3 shall apply to any Side Letter: (a) offering an Investor
or its Associate an opportunity to appoint a member of the Advisory Committee; (b) consenting to transfers of interests
or admissions of Substitute Investors; (c) offering rights to any Investor that arise from regulatory concerns or investment
policies to which such Investor is subject; or (d) offering co-investment rights in respect of Investments and the Manager
shall be under no obligation to offer any such opportunity to any Investor pursuant to the terms of this article.
11.4. Borrowing restrictions
Without prejudice to anything herein, the Company may borrow money from banks or other recognised financial
institutions and secure payment of any such borrowing by pledge of the assets of the Company provided that any such
borrowing shall be solely (i) on a temporary basis to facilitate the settlement of transactions in Investments; or (ii) in
order to manage working capital requirements, if any, during the term of the Company.
The Company may borrow money (either directly or through an Investment Holding Company) for any of the following
purposes:
(a) on a short-term basis (being, during the Commitment Period, less than twenty-four (24) months and thereafter
being less than twelve (12) months) for any purpose;
(b) to provide interim finance pending drawdown of Commitments;
(c) pursuant to the securitisation (or equivalent) of any of the Company's cashflows or anticipated cashflows where
the purpose of the borrowing is to return amounts to Partners;
19237
provided that the aggregate of borrowings taken and guarantees given by both the Company and Vespa B shall not at
any time exceed the lesser of (i) twenty-five percent (25%) of the Aggregate Commitments and (ii) one hundred percent
(100%) of undrawn Commitments of both the Company and Vespa B.
In connection with the Company's borrowing powers, the Company may make, issue, accept, endorse and execute
promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange, guarantees and other instruments and evidences of indebtedness and to secure
the payment thereof by mortgage, charge, pledge or assignment of or security interest in all or any part of the assets of
the Company.
12. Expenses and Compensations.

to receive and retain any sums in respect of, expenses recovered from or otherwise met by Portfolio Companies or
other entities in which the Company has made (or proposes to make) an Investment.
12.1.3 All costs, fees or charges associated with the distribution of Investments in specie to each Limited Partner shall
be borne by such Limited Partner.
12.2. Management fee
The Company shall pay the Manager an annual management fee (together with VAT thereon, where applicable) of an
amount to be determined annually by the Manager and which shall adequately reflect the level of services provided by
the Manager during the relevant period (the "Management Fee"). The Management Fee shall be calculated as from the
First Closing Date until the first occurring of (i) the term of the Company, as provided under article 2.3; or (ii) the removal
of the Manager in accordance with article 10.1.2.
12.3. Other fees
12.3.1 The Manager shall be entitled to accept and retain for its own account any Transaction Fees it may receive

not, in any Accounting Period, exceed an amount equal to:

12.3.2.5 thereafter, six hundred thousand euro (EUR 600,000.00),
in each case increased as provided in article 12.3.3 (such amount being the "Fee Cap") and, to the extent that the
amount of such retained fees (net of Abort Costs) exceeds the Fee Cap, such excess shall be credited (net of VAT or
any similar tax related thereto) against and shall reduce the Aggregate Compensation and the equivalent entitlement of
Vespa B Manager. The amount of such excess as shall be credited against and as shall reduce the Aggregate Compensation,
shall be the amount of such excess multiplied by the Vespa A Proportion.
To the extent that the amount of any such excess exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Compensation then payable,
the Aggregate Compensation shall only subsequently be paid at such time and to the extent that the amount of the
Aggregate Compensation then payable exceeds the aggregate amount of such excess.
12.3.3 If and to the extent that the aggregate amount of Transaction Fees retained pursuant to article 12.3.1 by the
Manager and its Associates in any Accounting Period is less than the Fee Cap for that Accounting Period, the difference
between the amount of such fees retained and the Fee Cap for that Accounting Period shall be added to the Fee Cap for
the next Accounting Period and the initial amount of the Fee Cap for the next Accounting Period as increased in accor-
dance with this article 12.3.3 shall be deemed as the Fee Cap for this Accounting Period (only) and for all purposes under
this article 12.3.

that such Investor will also be obliged (pursuant to the terms of these Articles) to pay to the Company its Undrawn
Commitment. The Manager shall (on an unlimited basis) be fully liable for such of the Company's debts, liabilities and
obligations as exceed the Company Assets.

The Manager shall upon the request of any Limited Partner promptly furnish to such Limited Partner any information
in its possession that is reasonably necessary in order for such Limited Partner to withhold tax or to file tax returns and
reports or to furnish tax information to any of its partners for the same purpose as in the case of the provision of
information for use by a Limited Partner. Similarly, each Partner shall promptly furnish to the Manager any information
requested that is required to enable the Company's tax returns to be prepared.
14.3. Periodic statements
Each Partner hereby confirms that, save as provided herein, no Partner wishes to receive any information by way of
periodic statement.

terminate on the thirty-first of March of the following year.
From the annual net profits of the Company, five percent (5%) shall be allocated to the reserve required by Law. This
allocation shall cease to be required when the amount of the statutory reserve shall have reached ten percent (10 %) of
the subscribed share capital. The general meeting of Partners, upon recommendation of the Manager and at the Ordinary

Capital Contributions but not, for the avoidance of doubt, so that any Limited Partner shall be liable beyond the extent
of his Capital Contribution, save in such circumstances as are specified in the Law.
16.2. Distributions in specie
If a decision is made by a resolution of the general meeting of Partners approved at the Ordinary Majority to distribute

but which shall not exceed the Compensation Cap for the relevant Accounting Period, and subject to article 17.3;

Aggregate Compensation shall be added to the Compensation Cap for the next Accounting Period and the initial amount
of the Compensation Cap for the next Accounting Period as increased in accordance with this article 17.3.2 shall be
deemed as the Compensation Cap for this Accounting Period (only) and for all purposes under this article 17.3.

17.4 at such time as the Manager may determine and, to the extent possible, not later than three (3) calendar months
following the date upon which such Income Proceeds were received, it being provided that for the Accounting Period
beginning on the date of establishment of the Company and ending on 31 March 2010, any such distribution may occur
at any time before the next Accounting Period.
17.5.2.2 Subject to the provisions of articles 17.6 and 17.7, Capital Proceeds determined by the Manager (acting in
good faith) to arise from any Investment shall be distributed in accordance with articles 17.2, 17.3 and 17.4 as soon as
practicable after the relevant amounts have been received by the Company and, to the extent possible, within three (3)
months thereof.
17.5.3 Distributions of Other Distributable Amounts
Subject to the provisions of articles 17.6 and 17.7, Other Distributable Amounts shall be distributed in accordance
with articles 17.1, 17.3 and 17.4 at such time as the Manager may determine and, to the extent possible, not later than 3
(three) calendar months following the date upon which such Income Proceeds were received, it being provided that for
the Accounting Period beginning on the date of establishment of the Company and ending on 31 March 2010, any such
distribution may occur at any time before the next Accounting Period.
17.5.4 Capitalisation of Loan Payments
Without prejudice to the above, no distribution to Investors shall be made until the underlying amounts paid-in by
such Investors in the form of Loan Payments, if any, have been capitalised in accordance with article 4.4.
17.6. Re-investment
The Manager shall not be obliged to cause the Company to distribute Income Proceeds, Capital Proceeds and Other
Distributable Amounts where the Company is entitled to re-invest these amounts. The Manager shall be entitled to cause
the Company to re-invest:
17.6.1 monies comprising Capital Proceeds received by the Company from underwriting transactions or Bridging
Investments (up to the amount of their Acquisition Cost in each case) made by the Company (or any Investment Holding
Company) where the relevant securities or Bridging Investments lapse or are realised or sold down in whole or in part
during the Commitment Period and within twelve (12) months of the making or entering into of the underwriting trans-
action or Bridging Investment; and
17.6.2 proceeds of deposits or short-term negotiable instruments made or acquired pending the application of monies
drawn down pursuant to these Articles in making Investments or meeting liabilities of the Company.
17.7. Limitations on distributions
The Manager shall not be obliged to cause the Company to make any distribution pursuant to this article 17:
17.7.1 unless there is sufficient funds available therefore, as defined by the Law;
17.7.2 which would render the Company insolvent; or
17.7.3 which, in the opinion of the Manager, would or might leave the Company with insufficient funds or profits to
meet any future contemplated obligations, liabilities or contingencies (including, without limitation, the Aggregate Com-
pensation in respect of any Accounting Period).
17.8. Distributions in specie
17.8.1 Where Investments shall have achieved or are about to achieve a Quotation or where Investments have a
Quotation, and provided that such Investment is not subject to restrictions on any such distribution or any subsequent
transfer (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any legal, dealing and/or contractual restrictions), the Manager shall be
entitled to make a distribution of assets in specie in relation to the Investment concerned, on the basis set out in article
17.8.2 at the Value attributable to such assets.
17.8.2 Distributions in specie of securities of any class shall be made on the same basis as distributions of Capital
Proceeds such that each Partner entitled to receive such distribution shall receive a proportionate amount of the total
securities of such class available for distribution, or (if such method of distribution is for any reason impracticable) such
that each Partner shall receive as nearly as possible a proportionate amount of the total securities of such class available
for distribution together with a balancing payment in cash in the case of any Partner who shall not receive the full
proportionate amount of securities to which he would otherwise be entitled hereunder. Where the distribution in specie
is made contemporaneously with the Investment achieving a Quotation, the Value of the Investment concerned shall be
the listing price of the Investment. Where a distribution in specie is made of securities which are already quoted on a
stock exchange the Value of such securities shall be the weighted average of the quoted closing price of those securities
in the five previous trading days prior to such distribution (or if shorter the period from the date of listing).
17.8.3 The provisions of this article 17.8 apply to distributions in specie during the life of the Company and shall be
without prejudice to the provisions applicable in case of liquidation of the Company.
17.9. Return of certain distributions
19241
Each Investor may be required to re-pay (subject as provided in this article), as an increase to or to create an Undrawn
Commitment, as applicable, that part of any amount distributed to it pursuant to these Articles which:
17.9.1 Is or is attributable to monies comprising Capital Proceeds received by the Company from any Investment,
underwriting transaction or Bridging Investment (up to the amount of their Acquisition Cost in each case) made by the
Company (or any Investment Holding Company) where such Investment, commitment or Bridging investment lapses or
is sold down, or is realised, in whole or in part:
(a) during the Commitment Period; and
(b) within twelve (12) months of the making of such Investment, commitment or Bridging Investment; or
17.9.2 is equal to any amount of Commitment which has been, or which is contemplated to be, drawn down from that
Investor to fund the Aggregate Compensation; or
17.9.3 is equal to any amount of Commitment which has been, or which is contemplated to be, drawn down from that
Investor to fund fees (other than the Aggregate Compensation), costs and expenses of the Company; or
17.9.4 is or is attributable to monies comprising Capital Proceeds received by the Company on the realisation of any
Investment in respect of which the Company has given warranties and/or indemnities and where a claim has been made
under such warranties and/or indemnities; or
17.9.5 is or is attributable to the repayment of sums drawn down for a proposed Investment which does not proceed
to completion (and the Manager is hereby authorised to repay such sums); or
17.9.6 is or is attributable to payments to Previous Investors which are added to their Undrawn Commitments pursuant
to article 5; or
17.9.7 is or is attributable to the repayment of Commitments insofar as that Commitment was drawn down for an
Investment in respect of which the Company entered into such agreements with any bank or financial institution for the
purpose of facilitating the buy-out of the equity interest of the Company in any Portfolio Company (or holding company
of such company) by way of replacement for debt and that the Company made these arrangements on the basis that this
article 17.9.7 should apply,
and that part of any such distribution shall:
(a) To the extent of such Investor's Outstanding Commitment, be in repayment of such Outstanding Commitment;
and
(b) Increase such Investor's Undrawn Commitment, provided that such Investor's Undrawn Commitment shall not at
any time exceed the amount of its Commitment.
18. Transfers.
18.1. Transfer procedures
Subject to the provisions of this article 18, transfers of registered Shares shall be executed by a written declaration of
transfer to be registered in the Partners' register, dated and signed by the transferor and transferee or by persons holding
suitable powers of attorney to act on their behalf. The transfers of Shares may also be carried out in accordance with
the rules on the transfer of claims laid down in article 1690 of the Luxembourg Civil Code. Furthermore, the Company
may accept and register in the Partners' register any transfer referred to in any correspondence or other document
showing the consent of the transferor and the transferee.
18.2. Transfer by the manager
The Manager shall not sell, assign, transfer, exchange, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its
rights and obligations as a general partner other than to an Associate of the Manager (whereupon, in case of an assignment
or transfer, such Associate shall become the Manager in place of the transferor) or voluntarily withdraw as the general
partner of the Company, without a resolution of the general meeting of Partners to be approved at the Special Majority.
18.3. Transfer by investors
For a period of ten (10) years following their respective issue, no sale, assignment, transfer exchange, pledge, encum-
brance or other disposition (including the granting of any participation) ("Transfer") of all or any part of any Investor
Shares (other than pursuant to article 6.1 or 18.8), whether direct or indirect, voluntary or involuntary (including, without
limitation, to an Associate or by operation of law), shall be valid or effective except with the prior written consent of the
Manager, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
18.4. Transfer by special partners
18.4.1 A Special Partner shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Manager, to Transfer all or any part or parts
of its Interest held in its capacity as Special Partner to any person or entity. Any such assignment shall entitle the assignee
to receive the whole or the relevant part of the Special Partner's entitlement to the share of the profits, including Net
Income and Capital Gains and, on the dissolution of the Company, the share of the Company Assets and dissolution
account, comprised in the Interest and to benefit from any and all rights of the transferor under the Articles.
18.4.2 With effect from the date of receipt by the Manager of notice of any assignment of any Interest or part thereof
pursuant to article 18.4.1 or from such other later date as may be specified to the Manager in such notice, the assignee
shall be entitled to receive all distributions and, on a dissolution, the share of the Company Assets and dissolution account
19242
to which the Special Partners would otherwise be entitled in respect of the Interest or part of the Interest assigned. The
assignee shall not be entitled to question any accounts of the Company agreed by the Partners.
18.4.3 An assignee of the Special Partners' Interest or any part thereof shall not be entitled to assign any part or the
whole of the same to any person other than to a person to whom the Special Partner could have assigned the Special
Partners' Interest pursuant to article 18.4.1. Subject as aforesaid, the provisions of this article 18 shall be applicable in
respect of any such further assignment.
18.5. Position of substitute investors
Each Substitute Investor shall be bound by all the provisions of these Articles and, as a condition of registering any
Transfer or giving its consent to any Transfer to be made in accordance with the provisions of this article 18, the Manager
shall require (and the transferring Investor shall take all necessary steps to ensure) that the proposed Substitute Investor
acknowledges its assumption (in whole or, if the substitution is in respect of part only, in the proportionate part) of the
obligations of the transferring Limited Partner by agreeing to be bound by all the provisions of these Articles and becoming
a Partner and undertakes to indemnify the Company and the Manager in respect of any liabilities, obligations, legal costs,
taxes and expenses associated with or arising directly or indirectly as a result of such Transfer. The Substitute Investor
shall not become a Partner and none of the Company or the Manager shall incur any liability for allocations and distri-
butions made in good faith to the transferring Investor until the written instrument of transfer has been received by the
Company and recorded in its books and the effective date of the transfer has passed. Provided that the Substitute Investor
has acknowledged its assumption of the obligations of the transferring Limited Partner and/or Manager shall, on behalf of
all of the Partners, be authorised to release (but shall not be obliged to release) any Limited Partner who is making a
Transfer for any future obligation in respect of the Interest or Share which is the subject of such Transfer.
18.6. No dissolution of the company
The Transfer of any Interest or Share or any part thereof under article 18.1, 18.2, 18.3 or 18.4 or the withdrawal of
any Limited Partner in accordance with this article 18 or the admission of any new Partners pursuant to article 5 shall
not cause the dissolution of the Company.
18.7. Assignment of interests in violation of this article
No transfer of an Interest in violation of this article 18 shall be valid or effective, and the Company shall not recognise
the same, for the purposes of making distributions of Income Proceeds or Capital Proceeds or repayments of Outstanding
Commitment or otherwise with respect to interests in the Company.
18.8. Withdrawal
Except as provided in this article 18, or otherwise agreed with the Manager, no Limited Partner shall have the right
to withdraw from the Company.
19. General meeting of partners. The general meeting of Partners represents all the Partners of the Company. Unless
otherwise provided in these Articles, and, in particular, in case of revocation of the Manager pursuant to article 10.1.2,
a resolution of the general meeting of Partners shall be validly adopted only if approved by the Manager.
The general meeting of the Partners of the Company shall meet when convened by the Manager or the Supervisory
Board.
It must be convened following the request of the Partners representing at least ten percent (10%) of the Company's
share capital. Partners representing at least ten percent (10%) of the Company's share capital may request the adjunction
of one or several items to the agenda of any general meeting of Partners. Such requests must be addressed to the
Company's registered office by registered mail at least five (5) days before the date of the meeting.
The annual general meeting shall be held in Luxembourg at the registered office of the Company or at such other place
in Luxembourg as may be specified in the convening notice of meeting, on the last Monday of July at 10:00 a.m.
If such day is a legal or a bank holiday in Luxembourg, the annual general meeting shall be held on the next following
Business Day.
Other general meetings of Partners may be held at such places and times specified in the respective convening notices.
The general meetings of the Partners are convened by a notice indicating the agenda and sent by registered mail at least
eight (8) days preceding the general meeting to each Partner of the Company at the address indicated in the Partners'
register.
Each share is entitled to one vote at all general meetings of Partners. A Partner may act at any meeting of Partners by
appointing another person as his proxy in writing, by facsimile, email or by any other means of communication, a copy
being sufficient. The Manager may determine all other conditions that must be fulfilled by Partners for them to take part
in any meeting of Partners. If all the Partners are present or represented at a meeting of Partners and if they state that
they have been informed of the agenda of the meeting, the meeting may be held without prior notice or publication.
The general meeting of Partners shall designate its own chairman who shall preside over the meeting. DL shall be
designated as the initial chairman for a period to be determined by the first general meeting of Partners held after the
incorporation of the Company. The chairman shall designate a secretary who shall keep minutes of the meeting.
The business transacted at any meeting of the Partners shall be limited to the matters contained in the agenda (which
shall include all matters required by law) and business incidental to such matters.
19243
Partners taking part in a meeting through video-conference or through other means of communication allowing their
identification are deemed to be present for the computation of the quorums and votes. The means of communication
used must allow all the persons taking part in the meeting to hear one another on a continuous basis and must allow an
effective participation of all such persons in the meeting.
Each Partner may vote through voting forms sent by post or facsimile to the Company's registered office or to the
address specified in the convening notice. The Partners may only use voting forms provided by the Company and which
contain at least the place, date and time of the meeting, the agenda of the meeting, the proposal submitted to the decision
of the meeting, as well as for each proposal, three boxes allowing the Partner to vote in favour of, against, or abstain
from voting on each proposed resolution by ticking the appropriate box.
Voting forms which show neither a vote in favour, nor against the proposed resolution, nor an abstention, are void.
The Company will only take into account voting forms received prior the general meeting which they are related to.
Resolutions at a meeting of Partners duly convened will be passed at the Ordinary Majority, unless the item to be
resolved upon relates to an amendment of the Articles, in which case the resolution will be passed as provided in article
26.
20. Advisory committee.
20.1. Membership
The Company shall have an Advisory Committee appointed by the Manager. The Manager, in its absolute discretion,
shall have power to determine the membership of the Advisory Committee from time to time provided however that
the members of the Advisory Committee shall not comprise any officer, employee or executive of the Manager or of
Vespa B (or of its manager or adviser(s)) or any of their respective Associates. The Manager may agree with certain
Investors that the Manager will appoint persons nominated by such Investors and, for the avoidance of doubt, it is ack-
nowledged that the Advisory Committee has the same composition as the advisory committee (or similar structure) for
Vespa B.
20.2. Convening of meetings
The members of the Advisory Committee shall be invited by the Manager to attend a meeting at least annually as the
Manager may determine. The members of the Advisory Committee shall be reimbursed by the Company for reasonable
expenses incurred while acting in that capacity but shall not be otherwise compensated for their services as Advisory
Committee members. Representatives of the Manager shall be entitled to attend meetings of the Advisory Committee.
20.3. Function
The function of the Advisory Committee shall be to be consulted by the Manager on general policies and guidelines,
prospective investment sectors, the appointment of additional Vespa A Key Executives for the purposes of these Articles
and conflicts of interest in respect of the Company. The members of the Advisory Committee shall not take part in the
management of the Company's business.
20.4. Operation
20.4.1 All decisions of the Advisory Committee shall be taken by vote of a majority of its members, either at a meeting
called by the Manager in its discretion or, where no meeting is held or in the case of those members, who decline to
attend a meeting, by the members communicating to the Manager their consent. Minutes shall be taken of meetings of
the Advisory Committee and circulated to each member of the Advisory Committee and to each Investor.
20.4.2 Where the approval or consent of the Advisory Committee is required to a particular course of action such
approval or consent of the Advisory Committee only permits but does not commit the Company to that course of action.
Any such commitment can only be made pursuant to a decision of the Manager in accordance with the terms of these
Articles.
20.4.3 If an Investor becomes a Defaulting Investor, then any appointee of such Investor on the Advisory Committee
shall no longer be entitled to attend or vote at any subsequent meeting of the Advisory Committee for so long as such
Investor remains in default.
20.5. Certain provisions affecting members of the advisory committee
The Partners agree as between themselves and for the benefit of each of the members of the Advisory Committee
for the time being and any person whom such members may represent or by whom they may be employed (each, including
their respective agents, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, shareholders and trustees, a "Member") that:
20.5.1 each Member shall be entitled to receive its reasonable travel, accommodation and meal expenses incurred in
connection with its attendance at meetings of the Advisory Committee which take place other than in conjunction with
meetings of the Company; and
20.5.2 no Member shall owe any fiduciary, trust or similar obligations arising from, or in connection with, its or its
representative's or employee's membership of the Advisory Committee.
21. Exculpations and Indemnities.
21.1. Exculpation
None of the Indemnified Persons shall have any liability for any loss to the Company or the Partners arising in con-
nection with the services to be performed hereunder or pursuant hereto, or under or pursuant to any management
19244
agreement or other agreement relating to the Company or in respect of services as a Nominated Director or member
of the Advisory Committee or which otherwise arise in relation to the operation, business or activities of the Company
save in respect of any matter resulting from such Indemnified Person's fraud, wilful misconduct, bad faith or reckless
disregard for their obligations and duties in relation to the Company or, save in the case of Indemnified Individuals, their
gross negligence (provided that such gross negligence has had a material adverse economic effect on the Partners or the
Company), or, in the case of the Manager, any matter resulting from a breach of any duty it may have, or any liability it
may incur, to the Company or any Investor under the Law.
21.2. Indemnity
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless out of Company Assets the Indemnified Persons against any and
all liabilities, actions, proceedings, claims, costs, demands, damages and expenses (including legal fees) incurred or threa-
tened arising out of or in connection with or relating to or resulting from the Indemnified Person being or having acted
as a general partner or manager in respect of the Company or arising in respect of or in connection with any matter or
other circumstance relating to or resulting from the exercise of its powers as a general partner or manager or from the
provision of services to or in respect of the Company or under or pursuant to any management agreement or other
agreement relating to the Company or in respect of services as a Nominated Director or member of the Advisory
Committee or which otherwise arise in relation to the operation, business or activities of the Company provided however
that any Indemnified Person shall not be so indemnified with respect to any matter where a court of competent jurisdiction
has found that this results from their fraud, wilful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard for their obligations and
duties in relation to the Company or, save in the case of Indemnified Individuals, their gross negligence (provided that
such gross negligence has had a material adverse economic effect on the Partners or the Company).
21.3. Continuing effect
For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnities under article 21.2 shall continue to be in effect notwithstanding that the
Indemnified Person shall have ceased to act as manager or to otherwise provide services to or in respect of the Company
or to act in any of the capacities described in article 21.2.
21.4. Agents
The Manager shall not be liable to any Limited Partner or to the Company for the negligence, fraud, dishonesty, wilful
misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard for its obligations and duties in relation to the Limited Partner or Company (as
appropriate) or material and unremedied breach of its engagement of any agent acting for the Limited Partner or for the
Company provided that such agent was selected, engaged and retained by the Manager, as the case may be, applying
reasonable care. The Manager hereby assigns to the Company any right of action which it either has or may in the future
have against any agent selected, engaged and retained by the Manager in the event of any of the circumstances referred
to in this article 21.4 applying in respect of such agent.
21.5. Taxation
Each of the Investors shall indemnify each of the Manager, its Associates and the Company against the amount of
Taxation for which the Manager, its Associates or the Company is liable either on behalf of that Investor or in respect
of that Investor's Interest. The Manager shall notify such Investor of such amount having been paid.
22. Confidentiality.
22.1. Confidential information
Subject to article 22.2, the Limited Partners shall not, and each Limited Partner shall use all reasonable endeavours to
procure that every person connected with or associated with such Limited Partner shall not without the prior written
consent of the Manager, disclose to any person, firm or corporation or use to the detriment of the Company or any of
the Partners (other than in connection with claims against such parties in respect of any breach of their obligations and
duties under these Articles) any Confidential Information which may have come to its or their knowledge concerning the
affairs of the Company or Portfolio Companies or proposed investments, provided however that in respect of each
Partner the foregoing obligation shall not apply to information which:
22.1.1 is possessed by such Partner prior to the receipt thereof from the Manager; or
22.1.2 becomes known to the public other than as a result of a breach of such obligations by such Partner; or
22.1.3 the Manager (acting reasonably) believes it is necessary to disclose to enable the Company to make any particular
Investment.
Each Limited Partner acknowledges that unless otherwise stated all information provided to them by the Manager is
confidential and the release of such information may be detrimental to the affairs or business of the Company or the
Manager.
22.2. Exceptions to confidentiality
22.2.1 Notwithstanding article 22.1, a Partner shall be entitled to disclose information received by it pursuant to article
14.2 concerning the business or affairs of the Company:
22.2.1.1 To its shareholders, members, unitholders or partners as the case may be;
22.2.1.2 To its bona fide professional advisers and auditors;
19245
22.2.1.3 If specifically required to do so by law or by a court of law or by the regulations of any relevant stock exchange
or any other regulatory authority to which any of the Partners or any such person connected or associated with a Partner
is subject;
22.2.1.4 To any governmental, regulatory or tax authorities to which such Partner is required to report and in particular
an Investor (and any employee, representative or other agent of an Investor) may disclose to any and all persons, without
limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Company and all materials of any kind (including opinions
or other tax analyses) that are provided by the Manager to the Investor relating to such tax treatment and tax structure;
or
22.2.1.5 if the Investor is a fund of funds (or equivalent) to such Investor's investors,
provided that in the case of articles 22.2.1.1, 22.2.1.2 and 22.2.1.5 above such disclosure shall only be allowed if: (i)
the recipient is bound by an equivalent obligation of confidentiality in respect of such information and has given an
undertaking not to make any further disclosures of such information and each Investor hereby warrants to the Manager
that such recipient will continue to comply with such undertakings; or (ii) such disclosure is given with the prior written
consent of the Manager.
22.3. Refusal to supply information
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Articles, the Manager shall have the right not to provide any one or
more Limited Partners with any information (other than information required to be provided pursuant to article 22.2.1.3
or 22.2.1.4 that such Limited Partner would otherwise be entitled to receive or to have access to pursuant to these
Articles or otherwise if:
22.3.1 The Company or the Manager is required by law or by agreement with a third party to keep such information
confidential; or
22.3.2 The Manager in good faith believes that the disclosure of such information to such Limited Partner is not in the
best interest of the Company or could damage the Company, any of its Portfolio Companies or its business (which may
include a determination by the Manager that such Limited Partner is disclosing or may disclose such information and that
such disclosure or potential disclosure by such Limited Partner is not in the best interest of the Company or could damage
the Company, any of its Portfolio Companies or its business).
23. Conflicts of interest. Subject to the restrictions described under articles 11.1. and 11.2, and subject to any res-
trictions under applicable law on regulated activities, the Manager and its Associates:
(a) may engage in activities that are independent from and may from time to time conflict with the activities of the
Company;
(b) may also make investments that compete with the Company's investment opportunities; and
(c) may, from time to time, act as investment manager, manager, custodian, administrator, broker, administrator,
investment adviser or dealer in relation to, or be otherwise involved in, other companies which have similar objectives
to those of the Company.
It is therefore possible that any of them may, in the course of business, have potential conflicts of interest with the
Company. The Manager will, at all times, have regard in such event to its obligations to the Company and will endeavour
to ensure that such conflicts are resolved fairly.
In addition (and subject as aforesaid), the Manager and its Associates may deal, as principal or agent, with the Company,
provided that such dealings are carried out as if effected on normal commercial terms negotiated on an arm's-length basis.
The Manager or any of its Associates, or any person connected with the Manager may invest in, directly or indirectly,
other investment funds or accounts which invest in assets which may also be purchased or sold by the Company or Vespa
B.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any member of the board of directors of the Manager having an
interest in a transaction submitted for approval to the Manager conflicting with that of the Company, shall be obliged to
advise the Manager and to cause a record of his statement to be included in the minutes of the related meeting of the
board of directors. Such member may not take part in these deliberations. At the next general meeting of Partners, before
any other resolution is put to vote, a special report shall be made on any transactions in which any of the members of
the board of directors of the Manager may have had an interest conflicting with that of the Company.
24. Soft commissions. The Manager and its Associates may effect transactions or arrange for the effecting of transactions
through brokers with whom they have soft commission agreements. The benefits provided under such agreements will
assist the Manager in managing the Company. Specifically, the Manager may agree that a broker shall be paid a commission
in excess of the amount another broker would have charged for effecting such transaction so long as, in the good faith
judgment of the Manager, the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and other
services provided or paid for by such broker. Such services, which may take the form of research, analysis and advisory
services, market price services, electronic trade confirmation systems or third party electronic dealing or quotation
systems, may be used by the Manager in connection with transactions in which the Company will not participate. The
19246
Manager will only effect a transaction with any person pursuant to a soft commission agreement where such person has
undertaken to provide best execution and otherwise act in compliance with all applicable rules in Luxembourg and abroad.
25. Termination and Liquidation. In case of dissolution of the Company, one or more liquidators (individuals or legal
entities) shall carry out the liquidation. The liquidator(s) shall be appointed by the general meeting of Partners which
decided the dissolution and which shall determine their powers and compensation.
26. Amendment of the articles of incorporation. Except as otherwise provided in this article 26, these Articles may
only be amended (whether in whole or in part) by way of a resolution of the general meeting of Partners at a Special
Majority, provided however that no such variation shall be made which:
26.1 Shall impose upon any Partner any obligation to make any further payment to the Company beyond the amount
of its Capital Contribution and of its Loan Payment (if any); or
26.2 Increases the liabilities of or obligations of, or diminishes the rights of or protections of, a particular Limited
Partner or a particular group of Limited Partners (including any change in the distribution or in the allocation of Net
Income, Net Income Loss, Capital Gain and Capital Loss) differently than the other Limited Partners under these Articles;
or
26.3 Otherwise modifies the limited liability of any Limited Partner,
without the affirmative consent of all Partners adversely affected thereby.
No variation may be made to this article 26 without the unanimous consent of all Partners.
27. Applicable law. For all matters not governed by these articles of incorporation the parties shall refer to the Law.
28. Miscellaneous.
28.1. Severability
If any article or provision of these Articles shall be held to be invalid or unlawful in Luxembourg such article or provision
shall only be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability. The remainder of these Articles shall not be
affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect and any such invalidity or unenforceability in Luxembourg shall
not invalidate or render unenforceable the others provisions in Luxembourg.
28.2 .Waiver
No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising on the part of any of the Partners any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
provided in these Articles are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise provided by law.
28.3. Set-off
28.3.1 As far as permitted by applicable law, where any Limited Partner owes any amount or has incurred any liability
to the Company under these Articles, and whether such liability is liquidated or unliquidated, the Manager shall be entitled
to set off the amount of such liability against any sum or sums that would otherwise be due to such Limited Partner under
these Articles.
28.3.2 As far as permitted by applicable law, any exercise by the Manager of the right of set-off under this clause 28.3
shall be without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to the Manager or Company under these Articles or
otherwise.
